Two Little Girls Die in Kampot Hit and Run

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Cambodia News, (Kampot): A fatal hit and run traffic accident occurred on January 6, 2021 at 3:40pm on National Road No. 31 between km 22 and 23 at Prey Pdao village, Phnom Kong commune, Angkor district, Kampot province.
The two girls were crossing the road, holding hands, when they were swiped by a car, killing the 9-year-old instantly, and fatally injuring the other little girl, who was only four or five years old, and who died soon after the accident.

The car driver, who was coming from the south, continued without stopping along the national road, and unfortunately nobody saw the car or license plate. Police are still making inquiries to try to identify the driver.

The bodies of the two children were handed over to their parents for a religious ceremony.
[The news photo shows the two bodies laid out together, so the girls were probably sisters. RIP little girls.]

Maybe the girls' ghosts will pay a visit to that driver. Ghosts can travel faster than cars, I've been told.
